2.​Order: NS​ 1,000 mL IV stat at 125​ mL/h for 8 hours. After 6​ hours, 500 mL remain to be infused. The infusion is behind schedule. Compute the new flow rate in​ mL/h so that the infusion will finish on time. Note that flow rates may not be adjusted by more than​ 25% of the original rate. To what rate would you reset the drip​ rate, or would you contact the​ prescriber?

3. ​Order: NS 1,000 mL IV stat. at 125​ mL/h for 8 hours. Because the drop factor is 10​ gtt/mL, the initial flow rate was correctly set at 21​ gtt/min. After four​ hours, 600 mL remain to be infused. The infusion is behind schedule. Compute the new flow rate in​ gtt/min. so that the infusion will finish on time. If flow rates may not be adjusted by more than​ 25% of the original​ rate, to what rate would you reset the drip​ rate, or would you contact the prescriber​ instead?
